The MICAGO Declaration
Revised January 2008 ( save pdf copy )
To Whom It May Concern
I assert my right to the fundamental freedom to chose what is right for my health
I assert my right not to be poisoned by toxic chemicals in the name of corporate greed
I assert my right not to have my health damaged by either government action or apathy
And I fully acknowledge
My often-overlooked responsibility
To do all I can within the spirit of the law
To protect those vital rights
I call for an end to the pollution of my air, food, water and environment by toxic chemicals
I call for an end to the burden imposed on my body by the synergistic effect of known toxins
I call for an end to all the many daily violations of my body by unavoidable toxic chemicals
And I confront with all my honesty
My own complicity and past contributions
In helping to bring about
The present toxic holocaust we are all living under
I believe that all toxic synthetic chemicals can be replaced by safe and natural alternatives
I believe that a safe, pollution free world is possible - and that we can have it if we really try
I believe that the unity of the many - in common cause - can bring about true miracles of change
And I want now to add my voice
To the international choir of the just
For ending the insatiable greed of the few
At the great expense of the many
If the above declaration resonates with you, your group, or your organisation, then we invite you, with arms wide open, to join with us in a new unity of common cause called The MICAGO Initiative. Joining incurs no cost, it asks of you no compromise, and it places no obligation whatsoever upon you. By joining with us you are simply making a basic but very empowering statement of international unity against the toxic-chemical abuse of our bodies, our social and wild environments, and the many forms of wildlife that share this wonderful blue planet with us - all in the name of soulless, corporate greed.
